http://www.autobytel.com/auto-shows/u... Volkswagen has long been the torch bearer for clean diesel technology in the U.S. Their line-up of TDI cars have been at the top of the fuel economy list for non-hybrid vehicles over the past decade. Autobytel's Editor in Chief caught up with Kevin Joostema who is the Volkswagen GM of Product Marketing and Strategy for some inside info on this new CrossBlue hybrid concept car. The VW CrossBlue concept combines the best of both worlds; a very fuel efficient TDI engine with two electric motors. This highly innovative system takes the world famous line of TDI engines and combines that power plant with a plug-in hybrid system consisting of two electric motors and a lithium-ion battery pack. The result is not only a powerful SUV but a very economical one. The combined power output is said to be 305 horsepower and 516 lb-ft. of torque. Fuel economy figures are estimated at 89 MPGe (electric mode only) and 35 MPG hybrid mode. The CrossBlue Concept Car is a concept study for a mid-sized SUV. What is unique about this concept car is that it is a 6/7 Seat SUV that gets incredible gas mileage. The CrossBlue is a study on what the needs and shape of a future SUV could be. The unique and interesting part is the powertrain. The concept has a dual plug-in hybrid diesel powertrain that has an 89 MPG electric rating and 35 MPG in the hybrid electric assist mode. Volkswagen is using this concept as a study in an effort to gather the public's reaction. VW has experienced year over year growth for 3 years straight and they know that in order to sell 800k vehicles in the U.S. this segment is an important market.
